Chapter 7: Greetings (1)

It was late at night, and I counted the more leaks, and gradually forgot about the pain in my body. Looking sideways at the man beside him, he slept deeply, but even when he was asleep, his eyebrows did not stretch. Was the Turkic war too urgent, or was there some recent turmoil in the DPRK? He worked most on his country, and probably never on his women.

I traced his eyebrows with my empty hands, his eyebrows were thick and knife-like. His eyes were not big, but they were very attentive, and none of the people he was staring at dared to meet his gaze. The bridge of his nose was high and straight. His lips are very thin, and they all say that people with thin lips are thin, and this is really the case. His face is as neat and resolute as a knife, he is a martial man, he led troops to fight when he was young, and has experienced dozens of battles large and small, so his complexion is not fair, but wheat-colored, and he looks very masculine.

He was an alternative in my life, and the men around me, including my father, were fair-skinned and weak scholars. He is the only exception, but he is also my master.

"Your Majesty, I have already died at your hands once, and I do not want to die a second time. I murmured softly, and then closed my eyes, even if I slept with him, it was just a dream in the same bed.

When he woke up the next day, the emperor had already gotten up and gone to the court. I called the spring equinox and Gu Yu to come and serve, and the spring equinox looked at me and said with a smile: "When the emperor got up this morning, he specially instructed the slave maid to wake up the mother later, so that you can sleep for a while." I didn't think about it, mother, you woke up by yourself. ”

I was so sore that I didn't even have the strength to speak, so I had to let them help me to the bathtub, but fortunately the hot water had already been prepared, and I took a hot bath to relieve my fatigue, so that I could go to the queen to meet me.

The queen married the emperor when she was still a prince, and she was still a princess at that time, three years older than the emperor. I heard that at that time, the princes coveted the position of the prince, and the emperor's biological mother, Concubine Xian, and the queen's mother talked about the marriage of their children. Later, the emperor became a great treasure, and the queen's family supported him behind his back.

It's just that after the emperor ascended the throne, he deeply felt the disadvantages of the constraints of the maternal relatives, and for the queen's maternal family, first it was beneficial to make it compete with the queen mother's maternal family, and then the two sides gradually tired, and the queen mother's body became weaker and weaker, and the emperor eradicated the power of the queen's maternal family with lightning speed. A hundred years after the Queen Mother, she uprooted the power of the Queen Mother's mother clan with the power of thunder. At that time, the emperor felt that the power of restraint was no longer there, and the governance was more enjoyable.

At the beginning, the queen had given birth to the emperor's eldest son, but when she was six years old, she ate a piece of pastry in the wind, and after she went back, she had a high fever that did not go away, vomiting and diarrhea, and she was treated by countless famous doctors for ineffective treatment, and died after seven days. The queen was so sad that she almost fell ill. The emperor was also very sad, but fortunately, Concubine Zheng gave birth to two princes for him, Xu Chongrong also gave birth to three princes for him, and the harem gave birth to princes for him one after another, so the sadness of being a father cannot be more than that of a queen as a mother.

All the emperor can do is to posthumously crown him Prince Minde after the death of the emperor's eldest son. Because, the emperor has many sons.

And the queen has only one princess in addition to the deceased prince. This princess was the second son of the Wailang family, a member of the military department, last fall. The queen probably felt that there was no one to accept joy under her knees, so she adopted the eleventh prince under the biological mother's position. The Eleventh Prince is only five years old this year.

While taking a bath, he thought about this, and estimated that the time was almost up, so he got up and changed his clothes. Gu Yu brought a lot of clothes for me to choose. I glanced at the vernal equinox, the vernal equinox understood, went out and came back and said: "Thanks to your instructions, Xiao Fugui has inquired clearly, the queen is wearing red today, Zheng Guifei is wearing rose purple today, Concubine He is wearing royal blue today, Wang Zhaoyi is wearing lake blue, and Xu Chongrong is wearing turquoise green." ”

I nodded while listening, and Gu Yu asked puzzledly: "What is Niangniang doing when you inquire about these?" I glanced at her and said: "The queen is the mother of the main palace, I naturally don't dare to collide with him, Zheng Guifei is a high-ranking and favored concubine, so I naturally don't dare to compare with her." As for the rest of the imperial concubines, they are all concubines who have given birth to princes and have a lot of honor, so they can't be offended. ”

Gu Yu nodded admiringly, and asked: "Then Niangniang has figured out what color clothes to wear?

I shook my head, goose yellow deceives, those with a non-white complexion can't wear it, and the elderly can't wear it, if I wear it, won't I tell them plainly that I'm young, and you're all old!

"And what about this peach-colored one? ”

I still shake my head, I wear this color, which makes my eyebrows and eyes charming. I'm here to meet today, not to a beauty pageant.

After picking a few times, the last choice was a light blue skirt, although it was not outstanding, but it was also generous, not to mention, there was a smell of small jasper. Ladies like the queen and Zheng Guifei have a high-minded style, and I deliberately degrade some identities now, so as not to make them unhappy.

Gu Yu combed me with an anti-bun, inserted a jasper hairpin diagonally, and pulled two piles of yarn palace flowers. I didn't apply powder, I just applied honey cream, and because my lips were very small, I painted them slightly fuller with a light color. He wears an ice jade plug the size of a red bean on his ears, no ornaments around his neck, and a jade bracelet of excellent color on his wrist. Looming in the gestures. It not only shows the identity, but also makes up for the lack of too plain dress.

After packing up, I got on the oil wall car and headed towards the Jiaofang Hall of Zichen Palace.

The emperor and the queen live in the Zichen Palace, the emperor's bedroom is the main palace, and the queen lives in the Jiaofang Palace. The dragon bed in the emperor's bedroom, except for the emperor, only the queen can sleep. This is also the royal family's announcement to the people that the position of the wife is extremely noble. And we, the concubines, can only live in other places and wait for the favor of our husbands, and we can only look at the position of the wife from afar, but we can't covet it.

The oil wall car quickly arrived outside the Jiaofang Palace, and when I got out of the car, I quickly glanced at it and found that most of the concubines who asked the queen to greet the queen today had come, and almost all of them had arrived. Although I was not too late, and it was supposed to be the time to greet the Queen, they seemed to be in a hurry to get there one step ahead of me.

Could it be that this will be the same as in my previous life, taking the opportunity of my "late arrival" to count me down, so as to warn me and give me a dismount?
